\TYPE {graph : ('a, 'b) func -> ('a * 'b) list}
\SYNOPSIS
Returns the graph of a finite partial function.
\DESCRIBE
This is one of a suite of operations on finite partial functions, type
{('a,'b)func}. These may sometimes be preferable to ordinary functions since
they permit more operations such as equality comparison, extraction of domain
etc. The {graph} function takes a finite partial function that maps {x1} to
{y1}, ..., {xn} to {yn} and returns its graph as a set/list:
{[x1,y1; ...; xn,yn]}.
\FAILURE
Attempts to sort the resulting list, so may fail if the type of the pairs does
not permit comparison.
\EXAMPLE
{
# graph undefined;;
val it : ('a * 'b) list = []
# graph (1 |=> 2);;
val it : (int * int) list = [(1, 2)]
}
